Making Baby #3 is GO!

After months and months of begging, dropping hints, poking and threats, my husband finally gave me the okay to have my IUD taken out so we can try for baby number 3!!!!

As many as my family/friends know, I only wanted 2 kids. But now that I have two I really just want one more. I see an infant and I just want to take them in my arms, smell their hair, kiss their fingers and spend hours with them. That is how I know I need/want another. Women that are done having kids will want to hold them for a few minutes and then give them back.

My husband used to want four! Then I talked him down to two. Then when I said three, he fought me because he had it in his mind that he would have two. And because of his crazy work schedule, he was worried about giving each child the love and attention they needed. I told him that isn't an issue.

Then the other day he said, "If you need another baby to be happy, we can have another." Smiling I said, "I don't need another baby to be happy, we have a fantastic life with the two that we have, but I know that another baby would add to that."

So next month on the 14th at my yearly Gyno appointment, I am going to have my fantastic doctor take out my IUD. It will probably take at least 6 months to get pregnant, and just the kind of person I am, I do not want to be 30 having a baby. (No offense to those that have) I will be 28 next month so a baby for my 29th birthday would be amazing! The biggest reason I don't think I would pull out too much hair? Isaiah would be 4 and Lilly would be 3 if I didn't have a baby until sometime after their Spring birthdays. I fell that is a great pacing. (Typing it though makes me realize how big they are getting)

My excitement over what will be happening soon is over the moon and I can't wait to feel a little life in my body again. More so to hold one.

I know that children are a blessing and commandment from God. And women I look up to and admire have at least that many AND work, I think I can handle three and being home.

Cheers to my upcoming pregnancy! (For those that know me, I am blessed with getting pregnant easily and am so grateful for it. My heart TRULY goes to those who struggle with it because I cannot the pain that can come from wanting a child and not being able to have one)
